The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Nobody knows where I came from nobody even knows my name
Nobody cares where I'm goin' or if I'll ever pass this way again
I guess that I was born to wander never seem like I could settle down
I'm as free as the wind when it's blowin' I won't be long in your town
Hey hey little girl I won't marry I never will be that kind
Love me now if you want to then I'll be movin' on down the line
[ ac.guitar ]
I don't wanna cause you no trouble the road I travel has no end
Little girl I don't know when I'll be leaving or if I'll ever pass this way again
Kiss me one time fore I'll leave you little girl don't cry when I'm gone
The good things in life are not many the way with no son with no home
Love me now if you want to don't ever try to tie me down
I'm as free as the wind when it's blowin' I won't be long in your town
Oh no I won't be long in your town
